BY a card il another column it
will be seen that new real estate
firm has opened an Office in the new
building adjoining the Chronicle
Office on the west, on Riverside
avenue. The sign bears the names
Of Lockhart, Routhe & Co. The
company is not known to the writer,
but the two gentlemen named are,
and If the SEQ" embraces the same
kind OF material the REVIEW pre-
diets that the firm will rapidly take
its place in the front ranks of
the agencies in tho city. Mr.. J. Il.
Lockhart is not only an old time
resident of the city and county, but
was one among the first who en-
barked in the real estate business in
the Falls. He is we'll acquainted with
the country and one OF the best
posted men on real estate in the
city. Major Il. a. Routhe is well
and favorably known in this city
by his editorial connection with
the. Chronicle. If he proves one
half as good q business man as he is
a writer, his accession TO the firm in

and especially to new comers who
are looking for good investments.

OsbOrn,

The progress Of the South Fork
railroad towards Osborn leads to
some speculation as to the prospects
of town at that place. The site Is
one.of unequaled beauty on the South
Fork, and we doubt II the three
ranchers who own the land would
object to selling a part Of their pos
sessions for a townsite, for il town
is started it will probably be located
on the river, as the ground is pretty
high and advantages must be taken
of the Murray Junction. This would
bring the townsite partly on Bill Os-
born's ranch, and the farm to the
east, as we'll as Tom Kemp's on the
north side of the river. Mr.. Corbin
will make seriops mistake If he does
not personally superintend the loca-
tion of depot, and place it in the
most convenient spot for the Beaver
creek, Delta and Murray traffic,
which in the aggregate will amount
to nearly as much as his entire South
Fork business east of Wardner juno
ton. The Wardner Junction mis-
take should not be repeated, for 1T
would have saved the Wardner peo-
pie thousands of dollars yearly had
the depot been placed across the
river, on the fiat below Milo instead
of its present ineligible location.
We believe good and pros
porous town can be built at
Osborn. There are ample reasons
why town should be built there
with enough business 80 justify 1t.
In the first place it will be the Muir
ray and Delta junction, with all the
traffic to and from the north side
points. In the second place it Is
surrounded by district in which
some of the best mining prospects
of which are tributary to that point.
and receiving depot for the great
Carbon district at the head Of Beaver
creek, which, before the present sea.
son Is over, will prove itself one OF
the richest galena belts, outside OF
Wardner, in the Occur d'Alene.
Then, again, it will be the shipping
point to the Pony gulch gold mines.
There is no place on the South Fork
where the facilities for concentra-
tors and smelling furnaces are more
commanding. Water power Is
abundant, and there are ores enough
in the vicinity to justify the most
extensive enterprises. In the mat.
ter of distance from other points it
has a material advantage, for it is
far enough away to strengthen its
position. Osborn is seven miles
from Milo and about the same dis
tance from Wallace. 1t is therefore
an intermediate point for business
houses of every kind with the best
part of the valley tributary to it,,
which will give immediate and sub
stantial trade. The opportunity
for large general merchandise es-
adjustments is not eXcelled any
where else on the South Fork. Muir

1t was thought expedient to revise

Major +. A. Routhe, III. M. McCart-
ney and j. y. Sherwood were ap-
pointed committee for that pur-
pose.

sary to put the wagon road in good

that little had been done in the
premises and asked for further time
to report, which was granted.

pose of assisting Mr.. Kane in secur-
ing stipulated number of subscrib-
ers to special illustrated edition of
the Portland Oregonian, containing
a finely executed engraving OF Spo-
kane Falls, and descriptive article
on eastern Washington ana the
Occur d'Alene country by III. M.
Mccartney. A motion was also
passed that the board take 1000
copies of the edition.
AS it was evident that members
through thoughtlessness were neg
lecting to attend the meetings of the
board the secretary was instructed to
send out written notifications to all
members of the stated meetings Of
the board. The secretary was also
empowered to secure suitable rooms
in which to hold meetings Of the
board, and to secure such supplies
for himself as were necessary. The
board adjourned to next Monday
evening when 1t Is to be hoped that
the members will show more inter-
est by turning out in body.

Fine Surgery.

On Thursday last at his Office,
DIR. Campbell, assisted by Dr's. Dye
and Pullen, performed delicate,
but successful surgical operation
on four year old boy, son of Mr..
Oliver Duffey, for defOrmity of
the right arm, caused by severe
burn when two years old. The
arm was knit to his chest from the
shoulder nearly to the elbow, and
had to be severed by the
knife. The operation was extreme
ly delicate on account of the num-
erous minute nerves passing from
the chest to the arm, and the sew
vering of which would cause
paralysis of the arm, and amputa-
ton necessary as a consequence.
That the operation was successfully
performed speaks in high terms of
the skill of I.ogan's surgeons.
